did you know you can nominate to this years version of "Best Synths & Music Gear", go to Bobeats Facebook to nominate: bit.ly/Nominate2019Bobeats and later this year we will do a poll (not on Facebook, we use Google polls for that)
-
It also works with hardware that has a USB Host, too. I used one with my MPC Live tonight <3
-
Just saw that there was a new Launchpad Mini as well with the same widgets. I think novation was listening to my inner thoughts.
-
They should make a novation launchpad just for hardware synth.
-
Love my Launchpad X... the Custom MIDI modes are a godsend, for use with stuff OTHER than Ableton.... while Ableton is great, it's so nice to see Novation expanding their product functionality with other DAWs. Wonderful.
-
assuming MIDI capture works the same as inside ableton, it should grab all the notes you play from the time you arm the clip, but it will set the clip loop/start/stop markers around the last phrase that you played. The phrase detection algorithm usually works pretty well. But you should be able to open the clip in ableton and see all the notes, edit, quantize, move the brackets etc.
-
You can customize it to use in Reaper, not just Ableton. Also you can control your external synths by running it through your DAW. No need for a USB hub but you will need a PC interface of course.

I Bo, I just received my Eurorack pullover hoody today ! Looks really nice and high quality stuff ! Now i'm ready for the "Bobeats lifestyle" ;-) Some nice gears to nominate this year ! Thanx for the video !
-
Very interesting video, many thanks - just on a point of clarification though there is no such thing as translating / converting “usb midi” to “din midi” - there is just “midi” - it can travel via usb or older din connectors but it is always the same signal - and midi hubs can also be entirely din or usb or combined like yours
-
Finally saved up enough for one!! It comes in a couple weeks
-
Bo, does the notes and scales work with midi usb hub?
-
when you are in custom Mode, is It possible to fill the 64 pads with midi note buttons (like you did at 8:22) that only play the notes that you want and play them polyphonically so you can play chords?
-
Thanks for another great video, Bo! I realize that this interesting and affordable device from Novation was designed for tight integration with Ableton Live, and that's great for Ableton users. I'm wondering if you, Bo, or anybody among your subscribers have any idea what the Launchpad X might have to offer for users of other DAWs such as Presonus Studio One or Cockos Reaper.
-
just a quick tip for your lighting: since the pads are lighted, use less surround lighting for the table, so that we can actually see the different colors of the pads :)
-
It looks like an upgrade? to the Launchad Pro, which has most of the features that the X seems to have. Pads do look a little bigger though. Now those custom templates might be worth checking out though.
-
Oh, I`ve just bought LaunchPad Pro 10 days ago.
-
Oww I wan it... For now I just have novation launchkey mini. Maybe next I buy launchpad x for better perform.
-
Bo, have you tried using any of the launchpads as a device to launch clips on the MC-707? Seems like it would be a good match to give you more than two rows of clips.
-
yo, bought this today, will be here in few days, pretty excited !
